Hi all, I'm repairing an old Geloso G4/214 receiver.
I checked and subsituted (only the ones checking bad) capacitors, resistors and solid state diodes. All tubes have been tested with an emission tube tester. Potentiometers and switches have been cleaned. The set appears to have been tweaked by someone else so the repair doesn't seem easy at a first glance. However here're the symptoms, I think they are unrelated but I can't be very sure anyway. 1) no reception on any band, there's not the slightest crack or change of background noise even when touching the antenna connectors. 2) USB and LSB positions give a loud AC noise on the speaker but the AM position gives "normal" background hiss and not the slightest hint of AC noise. Next step will be injecting a signal on the antenna socket and try to follow it through the various stages but I ask here anyway if these symptoms ring the experts a bell maybe. Thanks in advance and best regards. Frank IZ8DWF |
